Dynamic processes on networks, be it information transfer in the Internet, contagious spreading in a social network, or neural signaling, take place along shortest or nearly shortest paths. Unfortunately, our maps of most large networks are…

Graph embedding, representing local and global neighborhood information by numerical vectors, is a crucial part of the mathematical modeling of a wide range of real-world systems. Among the embedding algorithms, random walk-based algorithms…

The limits of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of macromolecules are steadily pushed forward by the relentless developments of computer architectures and algorithms. This explosion in the number and extent (in size and time) of MD…

We propose high-order hypergraph walks as a framework to generalize graph-based network science techniques to hypergraphs. Edge incidence in hypergraphs is quantitative, yielding hypergraph walks with both length and width. Graph methods…
